NYC 5 days ago

After I achieved my first goal to visit NYC, it was quickly changed to ‘MOVE to NYC’. Sounds far fetched for a broke 22 year old living in an Ohio suburb…but after coming home and still dreaming about it, I think it’s tough, but a well worth it goal to achieve.

And as easy as it seems, I won’t let this one get lost in defeat, so I will start by taking the first step- saving.



I want to move to NYC 1 week ago

I’ve wanted to move to the US ever since I was a kid. Watching a great city like NYC in the movies made me fell in love with the idea of living there, which is very different from what we have here in Portugal.
Within a year, I’ll hopefully get my bachelor’s degree in Environmental Engineering as well as my course as a Fitness Instructor. But the problem is that until now I haven’t yet figured out how am I gonna do this… I mean, I’ve read on the internet that it is very difficult to get permission to go to the US to live and work, that sometimes people need to wait a year or longer. Besides, I do not know anyone there… Anyway, it just seems very tough, though that’s not enough to make me want to give it up.

Living in NYC would be a dream come true. I’ll be graduating in 2 years and I will move to NYC and find a job there. It’s the greatest city in the world and I want to be a part of it ;)
I know that it’s gonna be hard but I’m ready for this ^^

Anat and Mario take on the Big Apple 1 month ago

It has always been my dream to move to New York City. I am finally at a point in my life where it’s even half way feasable. I will be finished with school in December and married next October, all I need now is the home in NYC.
